Re: Berserk 324 Spoilers

Wow the first time Miura has censor boobs 0.o I thought since shes young may be why but I remember he didn't censor the dead kid girl in the wild dogs chase.
Man I hope Miura only takes a month break cause last 2 years its been 3 chapters...break and repeat.

Re: Berserk 324 Spoilers

Ya I was hoping the whole motivation behind getting 3 movies focusing on the golden age would speed up his working process but it can't be helped at times. Hopefully the hiatus is maybe a month or two, but ya I agree it would've been nice if they could have at least finished this arc before going on another break. Since it does look like this could be wrapped up in 3 chapters.

What I find really interesting about this chapter though is Guts has actually reached his limit with the berserk armor when he is self-aware of his actions. As it stands now I believe the stress he's been under is fighting off the octopus beast that attacked the ship, damages caused them to land on an island so I"m pretty sure everything up til now is on the same day. He fought on the ship, fought in the tavern and outside, the berserk armor takes control when the pirate showed themselves again. While it would appear that he took no physical damage during those fights, the wounds he already has seem to be taking a toll on his mental state and overall ability to actualy control the armor with how easily it seemed to consume him when he called upon it this time. The darkness was strong enough to reject Shrieke who had always been able to grab a whole and bring Guts back to normal.

Luckily the moonlight child appeared opening a window for Guts to regain his sanity. Afterwards they fall back to the ship and Guts only gets a small breather before he calls for Shrieke's assistance and activates the Berserk armor to take down the Sea god. All things considered it's surprising his stamina didn't falter back in the village with how the armor consumed him. Though the cliffhanger wil definitely suck if it just shows and makes mention of how Guts has reached his limit and they don't show any rescue effort or at least resolution to that situation. We will most likely have to wait and see how Guts is saved since it would appear he is actually helpless atm, while the Merrows may be enough to subdue the sea god at the same time if Guts is still inside the beast he may be a goner with the pressure building up around him, I doubt that would actually be anyone able to go inside the beast and come to his aid.

While of course it would be impossible to actually say he'll die I am curious to see how he'll actually get our of the mess he's gotten himself in.

Re: Berserk 324 Spoilers

That's pretty sick, coughing up blood, eyes tearing out with blood and it kinda looks like his ears have ruptured. That's definitely showing how intense the sounds resonating from the sea god's heartbeat and breathing is. Making mention of how even Puk and Evarella have a secondary form they can call upon it's possible that they will be the ones to heal Guts, however it is possible that upon arriving at elfheim we'll have a Puk arc where he evolves his character and finds his true name to save Guts since he has the closest bond towards him out of everyone. I'm pretty sure Shrieke's body would be unable to help Guts with the condition she'll be in after this. While sure Gut's physical body is taking the damage I'm pretty certain she's taking a heavy hit on her mental stress. It'll definitely be a critical moment for her to keep a hold of Guts since if she loses focus he'll go on a rampage and prolly be unable to recover from the damage.
True Name

I like the concept of "real names" though the only fantasy story I recall it from is "wizard of earthsea" where the basic concept was when a wizard was set off on his own to travel the land he would be given his true name, though it was kind of weird since knowing your own true name was ok but if someone called you by your true name you would lose the ability to call magic. Though while wizards had a tree name so did everything in nature and if you were able to call the organic object by it's true name you would be able to meta-morph it's appearance into something else.

It's cool to see Miura use the "True name" concept in the story now that the realms have come together it makes sense. I'd be certain in saying that before Griffith succeeded with his plan Puk and Isma would have been unable to call their true names and have the potential to change their forms.

Re: Berserk 324 Spoilers

Similar concept in the Eragon series. Basically there knowing your true name gave you power over yourself but if someone else did they can control you completely. Its possible it may be Guts' next power up. Knowing his true name could result in him reaching a mental state of nirvana and making him even more deadly. Just a hunch.

Re: Berserk 324 Spoilers

Wow so many amazing pictures! Man Miura show some mercy to Guts : \
So Puck if his real name is called can transform into something like some tall pointy ear elf?
I got a feeling the next 2 chapters are going to be over epic since of this break, the sea god fight and maybe the cast does the real names in order to transform it will be awesome. Maybe these new forms are manuscripts that Miura had missing awhile ago xD

@llamapie If it is to make Guts a new power up then I hope he loses some of his injuries, his got 100s on him at the moment. Plus he got sick recently too.

You read the "control" part at sknet right? If you didn't then you have an amazing ability to deduce things.

It's true but i didn't wrote it there so it would be very strange if someone came up with it by it's own...

Re: Berserk 324 Discussión

well i understand why he would need a break here and there. the quality of his work takes weeks to finish and i imagine he may have one or two assitants.

plus, Miura is also working on the anime project, so give the guy a break. if your an artist doing this sort of work for a living, you'd want a break too.
besides, your getting it for "FREE". and you can't really complain about something that's free anyways.
